I have no idea what one would name such a magical place. I do however know that I love the color of the siding. I am making a Brooklyn Tweed stole right now in Cascade 220 Smoke Blue- which is identical to the color of this little farmhouse. Beautiful!

Gosh... I would love to think of some good names, but this requires further research, a deeper understanding of the place, and closer view of the chicken...
Wouldn't I just love to pretend my curiosity and dreamy appreciation of this beautiful farm are reason enough to stop by for a visit, so I can give this naming proper consideration?
Congratulations to the happy farmers, residents, and all their guests!

Oh my goodness. That is my absolute dream home. (I would also appreciate the addition of a pony, and I don't think my daughter would stand for anything less.) If I should every get to live on a farm like that, I'd call it Little Frog Farm. I doubt the name has wide appeal, but your friends are welcome to borrow it.

I'm stretching my brain trying to figure out how I can make my city condo feel more like this... Maybe I should at least add canning to my list of adventures this summer/fall (in addition to filling my new upright freezer with fresh picked blueberries.) What a treasure they have!

'Dapple-gray' farm? (once they get the pony) For the colours of the buildings, the misty comfort of the PNW sky, and because it's my favourite line from that lovely lullabye "All the pretty little horses".

Did you ever read Maple Hill Farm by Alice and Martin Provensen? I wish I could have a farm. Your friends' farm is gorgeous. I say they should live with it for a while and the name will come to them as if it has always been the name.
